Optimized for Gaming Sensors - Microscopic variances in the surface affect mouse tracking far more than its visible texture or color. The MM200 uses a carefully-screened surface material that delivers excellent tracking with any gaming mouse sensor.

Stable and Secure - You can’t afford to have your mouse surface move in the middle of a firefight, so we added a 1.5 mm no-slip base that provides cushion with just the right amount of give. And it’s made of natural rubber, so it doesn’t have a harsh chemical odor.

For those who missed out on this popular [COLOR=&quot;Blue&quot;]+45[/COLOR] FP Deal[&quot;http], there is a new deal available for the Corsair Vengeance MM200 Compact Edition Gaming Mouse Mat at $8.99, which is the lowest price ever.

I've had both. It's really a toss up IMO. Both are GREAT mouse pads. Just be advised though, this is the "Compact" Corsair mouse pad. Check the dimensions in the OP to see how it compares to the Steelseries one you are looking it. Sometimes people LOVE larger mouse pads....so the Steelseries one might be a better fit. It all depends on the user, to be honest

i have the 400MM series and its slightly larger than this one, but not massive like some out there, and I love it, I bought it when I posted a deal on it a whiles back, this was a great price for the smaller mat

I have two generic ones from Micro Center, one generic from Frys, two QcK Minis, and, since my post linked above, I picked up a Corsair MM200 (Standard Edition) just to compare. To note, I have since returned that MM200 because, honestly, I didn't need it or want to keep it for the money.

They all have the same construction: tight weave cloth top with a rubber bottom that's patterned in kind of a zig zag, almost like herringbone. See attached photos for visual detail (please mind my dust). I used the Corsair Gaming Software to test surface quality with each pad with a Corsair M65 at all default preset DPI levels, and the results were exactly the same across the board: "Good", which is four out of five bars in the software GUI.

The only differentiating factors between the mouse pads are length and width; the heights are all the same at 2mm. The generic ones measure at 216mm x 197mm, which is the smallest overall. My recommendation is to get mouse pads like the Corsair MM200 or SteelSeries QcK in the needed or preferred size if such is larger than the generic mouse pad's dimensions, the QcK Mini, or the MM200 Compact. If one were looking for a small mouse pad, might as well get a $2 if it's available since they appear to be the same.

Edit: I don't know why one of my attachments ended up upside-down. Everything's still visible though, I'm just puzzled.

Nothing beats a Zowie TF pad. I played a ton of counterstrike back in the day, went from the func to the DKT and QcK to Steelpad 5L and trust me, Zowie TF is worth it. Identical coefficient if static and dynamic friction means it takes the exact same amount of what force to start the mouse moving and keep it moving. Amazingly consistent with none of the static catch of a cloth pad or nervous twitch of a hard pad. Toss it in the washer when it gets dirty and it feels like new.
